Introducing a data manipulation application for estimating a nation’s resources to manage cross cultural distances

The general purpose of my current research project is to quantify a factor of four elements that seem to affect cultural distances either narrowing or widening gaps between nations in international settings. The A.I.K.A. Factor consists of the following elements: Attitude, Interest, Knowledge and Ad...

Tartalmi kivonat:The general purpose of my current research project is to quantify a factor of four elements that seem to affect cultural distances either narrowing or widening gaps between nations in international settings. The A.I.K.A. Factor consists of the following elements: Attitude, Interest, Knowledge and Adaptation Ability. A more specific aim of this paper is to report on my study in a Nordic setting. A bidirectional survey (total n = 265) was carried out. The resources two Scandinavian nations – Swedes and Finns - and the Russians have for managing their dyadic cultural distances were measured. The surveyed data was processed with The Koponen Manipulator, a two-dimensional data processing tool that converts each determinant to an interdependent one. Treating the factor with the manipulator results in a method that I tend to call The Dynamic Method.
